Location shots

I am going to use a range of different locations. My music video is very different his year to the one i made a few years ago because this one does not particularly have a narrative story plot. I plan to use a location at the band home and then several shot around Norwich, such as one shot where you can see all over castle medow and speed it up as the buses come back and fourth. I plan to use friends in this film because although the song contains quite sad lyrics it has an upbeat tune and i want to play on that. The music video will contain black and white, sepia and colour tones. I want the feel of a vintage video but not as though it was made long ago but modern vintage. I will most probably use simple shot because i want a simple yet effective video.

Schedual

I have also made a filming schedual, i want to keep the filming within the time limit as much as possible because the people i am filming with have limited time, also it give me more of an opportunity to work on other parts of the course.

Facebook email

I sent a standard email out to everyone asking for them to attend my filming day. Due to new technology and the increasing popularity of networking sites i am able to do this.

Getting it done

We chosen a date to film. It's the 23rd of December for my actors and then the 29/12/2009 for the band. We don't want to do them both on the same day because we want natural lighting for both pieces and it'll get dark before we have time. I think these dates are good because people have time off being the holidays however more people may have work or already be busy, fingers crossed it all goes ok!!!!

up in lights

I done my first peice of filming today, i filmed my light machine moving to the time of the beat. i used the dark room for this because it is dark so i can get the best effect and also it is quite soundproof so other noice would not interupt the movement of the light.
The overall product looked very good because of the enviromental factors such as light and noise i was able to control.
